Phunkshun Wear is expanding its Denver facility from 6,800 square feet to 9,300 square feet. The expansion comes as a result of increased production and will house raw materials and finished products.
Phunkshun Wear has added several new products to their collection including scarves, bandanas and Fishmasks. In the past year, Phunkshun Wear has doubled its graphic options from 50 to more than 100. In addition, the brand has experienced a large increase in International sales, now exporting products to Switzerland, Chile, South Korea, Japan, and more.
“It’s exciting to watch the growth occur; it’s happening very naturally,” said Phunkshun CEO, Jason Badgley. “The commercial and industrial real estate market in Denver is extremely competitive at the moment, we were incredibly lucky to find additional space in our complex.”
Born in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, all Phunkshun Wear products are hand-sewn in Denver using materials manufactured in the U.S. The brand produces winter facemasks that protect against the harshness of winter.
Phunkshun Wear recently earned a Bronze Level fellowship from the Environmental Leadership Program (ELP). The brand will continue to reduce its carbon footprint in its new facility by recycling scraps, producing zero wastewater and repurposing old packaging.
Officially founded in 2011, Phunkshun Wear has been manufacturing facemasks in the Rocky Mountains since day one. Originally designed to fulfill the needs of ski and snowboard instructors, Phunkshun Wear continues to produce items that stand up to winter weather conditions and protect from the elements.
All manufacturing takes place in beautiful Denver, Colorado. We cut, sew, and decorate the products ourselves. No outsourcing over the pond for us, we prefer to have as much of the production process takes place under our own roof. This is how we ensure that all our products meet our incredibly strict quality control guidelines.
